What this amendment would do

This is SA 713, an amendment submitted by Mr. Schatz. Plain and simple, its purpose is to create a deficit-neutral reserve fund.

This amendment aims to allow the Chairman of the Senate Committee on the Budget to make adjustments and revise allocations, aggregates, and the pay-as-you-go ledger for specific legislation. Specifically, this applies to bills, joint resolutions, amendments, amendments between the Houses, motions, or conference reports that relate to upholding the Federal trust and treaty responsibilities held by all Federal agencies to Indian Tribes.

  • Reversing Executive orders that undermine Federal trust and treaty responsibilities by cutting essential Federal programs and staff that oversee Federal trust funding and services to Indian Tribes.

  • Ensuring the legislation does not increase the deficit over the total period of fiscal years 2025 through 2034.
